“…On the other hand, because biodiesel has a lower calorific value than diesel fuel, the heat produced during the combustion process of biodieselfueled engines is less than that of diesel fuel-fueled engines. Biodiesel generated less heat and had a higher density than diesel fuel, which resulted in a lower value of BTE than diesel [118], [119]. There has been investigation on additives and the that they have on BTE.…”

Researchers are looking at alternative cleaner technologies to fulfill the rising need for greener fuels. For this reason, alternatives like bioethanol and biodiesel have become commercially available. Renewable fuels are classified as either "first generation," "second generation," or "third generation" depending on the feedstock used in their manufacture. Over the past decade, society's reliance on first-generation biofuel feedstocks has created an inbuilt rivalry between food and fuel. Second-generation biofuel feed-stocks, such as non-edible agricultural waste products, energy crops, and crop residues, have been illuminated by emerging technical prospects. Technologies for producing biofuels have been proposed and developed in multiple stages, with first-generation technologies being the most developed. In several nations, including the United States, corn grain is used as feedstock in bio-refineries. There is a risk that food and fuel prices will rise as a result of the usage of edible materials in crops like corn. Second-generation biofuel manufacturing technology that utilizes crop residues has been developed to deal with this kind of problem. This study investigates and evaluates the economic viability and environmental sustainability of the proposed solution for the production of second-generation biodiesel.

“…The ability of the models created by simulation studies to predict the engine performance and emissions and hence to be compatible with experimental results shows the reliability of the studies. 32 Engine performance and emission characteristics have been determined in the case of using different mixtures of ethanol, methanol, butanol, and gasoline in an SI engine modeled with the Boost tool of AVL software. In these studies, it is observed that the output power has reduced, and brake-specific fuel consumption has increased when alcohol-based fuels have been used compared to gasoline mode.…”

In this study, the performance and exhaust emissions of a spark-ignition (SI) engine were simulated using AVL program, and the outcomes were compared with the results coming from experiments. The simulated engine was operated at a constant speed (1600 rpm) and various engine powers with gasoline (G100), and it blends with different higher-order alcohols such as 1-hexanol (HEX) and 1-heptanol (HP) as new fuel combinations. The proportions of tests fuel combinations were G100, G100 + HEX (5, 10, 15, and 20%) and G100 + HP (5, 10, 15, and 20%). The experimental study showed that the highest brake-specific fuel consumption was calculated to be 0.625 kg/kWh using HP20 fuel at 1 kW of engine power, while it was found to be 0.598 kg/kWh in the numerical study. The experimental research indicated that the lowest CO emission was emitted to be 0.28% in HEX20 fuel at 5 kW of engine power. Under the same condition, it was found 0.26% in the simulation study. The highest NOx emission was measured to be 1349.8 ppm in HEX20 fuel at 5 kW of the engine power. Meanwhile, 1318.3 ppm was found in the simulation. When the simulation outcomes were compared with the experimental study results, the simulation results were in valid. The difference in brake-specific fuel consumption results between experimental and numerical research ascended as the engine power jumped up. Furthermore, reductions were observed in the amount of difference in the results related to emissions between experimental and simulation studies at higher engine powers.

“…As a result of the widespread interest in this technology, many nations, notably the United States, Australia, Greece, and Israel, have developed significant industries related to it [1]. While it's encouraging to see a rise in the use of solar water heaters in homes, it's important to highlight the sector's continued technical constraints [2]. The core design and operation of solar water heaters have changed very little over the previous two decades, despite the extraordinary advances in manufacturing and product quality.…”

The purpose of this study paper is to examine the potential for increasing the efficiency of solar water heaters by using novel design ideas. A qualitative examination of previously published material is combined with the development of a computer-aided design (CAD) model of a solar water heater using the SolidWorks as part of this research project, which uses a mixed-methods approach. The qualitative study draws attention to the relevance of design factors, materials, and combinations in optimizing the collection and use of energy. The CAD model provides a graphical representation of the suggested design adjustments and demonstrates how the overall performance may be enhanced. The results highlight the significance of inter-disciplinary cooperation, consumer awareness, and legislative assistance in order to encourage the adoption of improved designs for solar water heaters. The paper comes to a close by providing some ideas for testing in the real world, continuing research, and incorporating inventive design into the process of promoting sustainable energy practices.
